Summary "Negerleben in Ostafrika: Ergebnisse einer Ethnologischen Forschungsreise" by Karl Weule is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the author's ethnological research expedition through East Africa, focusing on the culture, customs, and psychology of various African tribes. It aims to present a comprehensive understanding of the lives of these communities through detailed observations and interactions during his travels. The opening of the work introduces the author’s intent and methodology, detailing how his research reflects a deep engagement with the local communities he studies. Weule emphasizes the importance of immersive interaction and communication, referred to as "~Masumgumso~," over mere observation. He discusses the challenges of documenting cultural practices and languages, particularly in light of the evolving dynamics within these communities. The preface also explains the innovative recording methods used, such as photography and phonography, which support his efforts to accurately capture the rich tapestry of life in East Africa without losing the essence of the environments and cultures he encountered.
